I Forgive You
Forgiveness is the key, To defeating your enemy. For what power can one have, Over a free soul? The answer is none And forgivness is how this freedom is won. If you cannot forgive Then how will you live? To truly forgive one must not forget, You must remember and yet, Move forward without feelings untoward, And not presume to judge as some mighty lord, Or ones soul may jump overboard. Often times this I do forget, And this always leads to regret. Pity the man that has fallen down, And do not give him that disgusted frown. Do not presume that you are any better, For you do not know the pain that is his thether. This you help me to remember, As you ignite my fading ember.

To Forgive Or To Forget?
Given in No more False To think I'm redeemed A fault Forgivness is Laced unto Selfish pity

Forget, refuse.
It is often the most difficult task, to forgive Could you agree? I am not very good at it, I will admit When all you want is to get even or to make the other(s) hurt just as badly as they hurt you... that fuels the grudge What is forgiveness? Is it letting someone off the hook? Is forgivness simply forgetting? Is it saying the wrong perpetrated upon us is now OK? That it really did not hurt or offend us after all? No, it is so much more Forgiveness is not an act of the emotions, for they seem unable to ever come to reason and they often betray us It is an act of the will, a release not just for the other but for ourselves from the prison of resentment and anger Do we need to hear an apology to forgive? No Do we need to make sure the other or others receive justice? No What we need is to make that choice To forgive even if we don't feel like it To wait till we "feel like it" is a lie It is like holding on to a poison that only destroys ourselves and not the ones we intended for it to torment Forgiveness doesn't mean we now have amnesia about the wrong inflicted upon us It just means all resentment and bitterness no longer have us in a vice-like grip And if we refuse to forgive one who is begging us for it that person is stuck in a ******* too Sometimes, we find it is us that is in need of forgiveness and sometimes it is that very thing that we need to extend to ourselves   so we can enjoy being in our own skin I am nobody to instruct another about how to forgive I am writing this partly for myself It is one of the hardest things for me, to forgive But when I am on the receiving end it feels so beautiful and so freeing To err is truly human And to forgive is truly divine It is not of our human nature to simply forgive but is a gift from God above Even under the worst of cruel situations true forgiveness is possible

Cherie Briggs/Acrostic
It all made sense now, the road map of my demise. You could've **** me with your longing heart. How could you let a broken painting get in the way? How could you presume, a friendly rapport was feigned? Why did you have to wait, till the dam can contain it no more? I felt fate yanked my heart's strings, tangling it. My brain, rupturing from the cruel deductions. Tormented cranium—screws gouging out of it. It all made sense now. Anger draws me towards retaliation. However, I choose not to bear arms; forgivness cries out. I sever my hand against you, for I will not let this get in the way of our longing for each other. I abhor hatred against you, because our sweet memories overwhelmed me; because I love you. My exquisite geyserite, blossoming middlemist, and my Alma mater. I have never forgotten you, I never did—I never will.

Break my walls down God
You talk to me as if nothing is wrong acting as if your the one the victum whos not getting along but your ****** up and done your venom leaking from your teeth i swear i can almost smell your heat you went and did the deed and came back to me calling me begging saying sorry. Waiting for my response i couldn't move i stayed still feeling the breath inside me increase with guilt i stare at nothing but the white i see before me you touch my hand i start to cry i pull away wanting to hide how could you do it i thought you loved me a simple mistake that you know would hurt me imposible to believe anything you say anymore hearing her laugh at me calling me names was that ***** worth it you cant even let me leave you the image of me walking away cuts you wide open do you really think you deserve it? my forgivness for a sin a sin that you knew all too good was my limit. My heart aching with regret how could this be i took you back half heartedly you hate when i bring it up but you never seem to notice the hole you left inside of me you can barely even focuse Yes i forgave you yes i took you back yes i put it behind me but the pain does not lack the hurt will stay with me forever the memory will never change the moment when you didnt think you'd throw my trust away.

Cheat, Cheater, Cheated
Some do not grasp the Knowledge of my soul They do not trust Jesus Enough to give Him all control They just do not get what I know Jesus always has had complete control He placed The Holy Spirit Within my veins Now with His Spirit I will sustain Jesus paid the ultimate price I now know to Him I owe my true soul All I needed to do was Ask for forgivness and then let go The Holy Spirit entered my soul Some may argue This point with me I say, go ahead, argue While you are captured, I am free

KNOWLEDGE OF MY SOUL
Falling out of love again, but not with whom I need to my past obsession has become nothing more than my new addiction. well, one of the many at least. to recreate the situations, is a cause forever lost. to formulate retaliations, leaves the souls of lovers lost. holding fire in your heart, burning brands upon your brain a grudge of blood and tears and scars the spark of which will still remain as long as ashes are collected and ember fanned alive   the beast possesses reason, a motive to survive. I seek relief in my relations, mostly trivial in nature, from my newfound deprivation of optimism for the future I seek relief in my relations, mostly trivial in nature, from my newfound deprivation of optimism for the future no regard for heart of others who tide me over while you're gone leaving cracks, slow to recover leaving faces in their palms Its been two years since we were in it, but maybe that was just a phase the time has come to face forgiveness and forget those better days.

Mastering the art of forgivness
Sometimes i pray to whom i don't know, Hands clasped, Eyes down, Like a desperate bingo player, Asking for your forgivness, Asking to be set free, Free from my daily guilt and pain, I beg that you stick around, Stick by my side if i do bad again, When i'm sad, bad, mad and doing wrong, Stick around, Stick around i pray, Eyes down, Hands clasped, This i sometimes pray.

Stick Around
silence is what i heard when you slid into our bed coldness is what i felt when you kissed my head the distance between us is no mistake as the pillows can atest my head turned, looking at the wall, wondering remember me when you lay in his arms as the tears creep down your cheeks the guilt is yours, not mine anymore i have made my plea for forgivness to you i guess revenge is not your style

the distance
Begging for forgivness Under the influence of my mistakes. One simple word is all that it takes. Tonight is my last stand, I will reach to my temptation's hand. The taunting voices cause my Tears to flood, Along with the constant shedding of my ****** blood. Everyone can see what I have become. That fact doesn't fase me, Because my emotions are numb. No one cared enough to try and Change my views. I turned on them. There was nothing else I could choose. I can hear the things they say As they whisper about what I used to be. Not even the man I love can set me free, From the monster that is me.

Monster
I am such a wretched man living in a foriegn land. No good work comes from my hand's. The words that flow from my mouth are proceed from a wicked heart. I know you by your name. Your love covers me casting a shadow of shame. Your innocence was subsituted by my guilt. It was my sin and yet you took the blame. You know me by my name. You seen my heart. My flesh was woven with weeds and thorns. You called out to me, I heard you and my sin departs. You justified a man because you love me and it breaks my heart. Your presence is upon me, I am convicted. I ask for forgivness and then depart. I went from your light back into the dark. I clung to you. You held me, you know my heart. I am so sinful. My every action is against you. My every plan is a plot. I wage war against you and your mercy sustains me as I continue in the dark. I could have died so many times but you save me. I could of fallen but you hold onto me. You always have my best interest when to me you are just a passing thought.   I fear your lashings but I reverence you because of who you are. You are the creator of all things! I am the child you sought. Your perfect son was given so that my sin would be baught. I am forgiven and you are an after thought. I am unworthy, undeserving and ungrateful, this is what breaks my heart. You are merciful, giving and you never depart. You walk with me every day while I plot against you and spit in your face. You saved my life and I curse your name. You changed everything and yet in me I walk the same. Your grace is upon me. Father I want to change. Will you forgive me and show me the way. -RSC

Unlikley circumstances Are God's way of guiding us Makes no sense to human brains He has a purpose Which we will sustain Even when we think Our lives are mundane If we ask for forgivness Jesus will maintain Peace in our hearts Will be faithfully true When we realize Jesus Gave us His life On the Cross To carry us through Thank you, Jesus

NEW AGE REBELLION
past phase through mansions of vampires that lurk at my doorstep and ask for garlic and white flags just bare with me please one more time through this just one last time through this sire I grasp these iron lungs and beg for forgivness at the thought of your gratitude I am driven to find something far greater than you although I know its impossible I know its impossible the room is copper your ring finger is stone I knew it all along but I bare because the one thing that will drive you to destruction besides love is despair hoping for something greater than this just a little better than this

Brute
The darkness consumes my every thought dragging me to the corners of my mind. There I find the memories of days gone by, hurt that was forgotten and joy never known. My silent torment remains silent as the screams for help echo in the hollwness of the memories I store. why won't they help me? Cant they hear me cry for someone to save me from myself, from that monster that haunts when I am unguarded and weak. That monster that stole my innocence that stole my childhood, and it wasn't alone as most monster aren't. God help the child trapped in this wretched soul for it is damaged and broken. To repair a soul, a mind is almost impossible for you can't recover what was lost in a sea of darkess and fear. Forgivness would be a start to finding peace ost would say, but that is an elusive response to the evil that lurks in my memories, and futile to seek that which does not come. I know the Lord has forgiven me for my past and sin, but I am not so easily persuaded to forive such hurt and betrayal of innocenece. The monster that brought the evil upon me is the worste some would say, but I beg to differ seeing the unknowing accomplice (those with the power to help but not the courage) the worste evil of them all and never worthy of forgivenenss.

Monster inside
Your shame will be enteral, your hope will shatter like glass. Her voice will haunt you, her face will strike regret in you. You broke her heart, and now you have enough courage to say your sorry. Sorry can't fix the things she gave you, sorry can't make me take back the nights I stayed up holding her from the pain you caused.

What is Forgivness
i crave to be something special special in all things special in the way my tounge moves in a circular motion inside of your mouth and on your all too dry body are you satisfied? i dont really care who knows i just hope that when you tell the story of lastnight your eyes light up and your hands move like i was something spectacular all of my friends know they know that you supply me with an indescribable loving that i wont let go of as long as im sane your skin resembles my favorite chocolate bar but i can assure you that you are worth more than a dollar your breath has become my favorite song and its been on repeat for a while now sinning has never felt more beautiful but yet i still ask for forgivness all in the same prayer i give thanks for something so wonderful my body throbs in anticipation on answers to why i deserve this i wonder if you ever notice me watching you i notice how your every step resembles a dance move i love how you do all things that you do i crave to be as special to you as the everlasting love making of our souls

As my life gets so complex, I slowly massage my neck. I scratch my head knowing I’m truly dead. I can't begin to express my loneliness. I can sit here in my room contemplating my doom. This cloud of gloom won't pass me by. Alas, I don't know why. You were a last reach at humanity. I guessed at the decision and got such a calamity. All I wanted was a friend. Instead I lost all hope in the end of sanity. As I felt my head leave my neck, you bagged my air and said what the heck; you tried your best, a feeble attempt, at a molesting order. I said look over your shoulder, a sky so blue and clear it removed the tears from my eyes as I said goodbye. You so coldly left my body in such a disarrayed exposed to all on that horrible day. In the back seat of a car, white in color, I always knew it would be a brother. One with no sense of others only a frustration unto himself his impotency and broken mind has caused my death before it's time. There is only one thing left to do as I cruse toward the judgment land. I'll ask god to forgive you. As you walk this life, just remember your fall from grace and try to make a vow to always protect instead of kill, To hold dear and get out of your own way make it clear you were to let go and to stay clear. To learn and live, find another, begin again. Just remember your vow remains till time will end. Your death could be eternal over and over again. Through the non ending flames of his judgment, fear lives long, but forgiveness wins.

I've told myself I'll never forgive you For what you've done and said to me But deep down I know you didn't Truly Mean all that mean **** I Eventually began to believe You were hurt, I know I was too But why didn't we stick together And try to make it through? The **** we were forced to deal with It brought us closer Even if only for a short time But that's the past all of the good times They're gone, all left behind And I'm left with nothing but Bitterness towards you You can't expect me to know what to do I won't apologize Even if I realize You were putting up a wall A disguise Its hard for you to show your emotions To put them into action So you get mad, an immediate reaction But listen dad this is my way to say I don't hate you I just hate the things that got in the way Of our bright days There were the times you were the only One I had When mom was in rehab we really had Eachother's backs But look at us now, We don't speak a single word Mainly because I resent the past The things we once said out of anger were disturbingly absurd But this isn't about what you did wrong Or anything that went on in the past I just want to give the forgivness To you, so we can be in peace at last You know, I need to stop and say to you There isn't ever a day that goes by When I don't think of you When I don't think about all the good things you've done for us all Yeah sometimes you weren't here but you never let us fall Especially 17 years ago when I was just born And you decided to stay with mom and me, when you Could have just walked out the door And I will never be able to say how much That truly means to me My dad, that, you will always be. So, Maybe one day ill have the power in my heart to read this to you So you can understand, And know the truth I love you and forgive you, dad, This letter is my proof.
